Mommy & Me Photo Session - Lynchburg, Virginia Family Photographer

This weekend I got to photograph some of my favorite Lynchburg people -- my niece, nephews, and sister-in-law! Photographing children can sometimes be a challenge, but trust me when I say that 99% of the time, photographing a client's kids is a million times easier than photographing my own.. unless they're still related to me. Then it's basically impossible, so we just bribe them with chocolate chips (mini ones of course) and promises of getting to play with their cousins if they cooperate.

And see! We still got great photos, even though they weren't nearly as happy about being in these pictures as they look. The trick is to keep it fun and playful as much as possible. As long as we can get a few smiles and laughs out of them, no one will ever know that they actually didn't want to be in their own family photos.
